I slept from 9:00 to 6:20, over nine hours and felt great. I dressed and watched the market open and then toasted a slice of whole wheat Sourdough bread and spread cream cheese and garnished with slices of avocado and red onion and Suzette took 1/4/ of it for her breakfast before she went to her exercise session.

I worked at my desk most of the morning with family business, except at 10:00 I took a break to walk 3/4 mile in the neighborhood.

Then at 1:30 I took a lunch break and went the garden and picked a 2 lb. Cucumber and peeled it, seeded it, and sliced and diced it into small cubes and added it to the tzatziki plus some more yogurt and lemon juice.

Then I heated 1/2 pita and stuffed it with a lamb kebab cut in halves, lettuce, feta cheese, and tzatziki and ate it with two dill pickles and a small pile of tzatziki.

After lunch at 2:30 I checked my portfolio and was amazed that Apple went up $4.04 per share and Warner Brothers Discovery that was spun off from  AT&T went up another $2.70 after going over $3.00 yesterday, apparently Paramount is going to make a bid to buy it. It was a good day with a .07% gain that came out of nowhere.

I worked on the LRGA all afternoon until 4:30.

Then I rested and watched the news until 5:30 when we prepared 

Dinner.  Suzette boiled a pot of water with farfalle pasta and made the cream sauce with a roux   I diced a medium onion, three cloves of garlic, a chicken breast while Suzette peeled about 18 boiled shrimp. I also diced the last ten chanterelle mushrooms, cut the rough ends off a bunch of enoki mushrooms, while Suzette sliced a few baby portobellos.  Suzette then made a Mornay sauce by stirring butter and flour and added a cup of milk and a dash of white wine and a cup of soft Amish cheddar cheese and then stirred ina cup of Amish cheddar we bought at an Amish farm on the west side of Lake Seneca and tossed sauce into the warm pasta. The beauty of this dish was that it reduced the amount of cheese sauce by putting it only on the pasta that turned out to have in one dish two sauces for a very interesting effect.

Suzette fetched a chilled bottle of Kirkland Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough New Zealand to drink with dinner and I poured several ounces into the chicken, shrimp, and mushroom skillet and filled two glasses.

Suzette plated 1 cup of creamed pasta tossed with Parmesan with 1 1/4 cup of meat in its wine sauce.

We enjoyed dinner and watched Univ. of Houston beat Colorado during which we first drank glasses of homemade limoncello. Then later I ate three slices of fruit cake with a cup of tea and went to bed at 9:00.

Bon Appetit
